What are we even doing here? Does anyone in this current administration have critical thinking skills? Also, I love my Nurse Practitioner!
The Department of Education is proposing a definition that could strip nurse practitioners and CRNAs of “professional degree” status.
Chiropractors keep it. Nurses risk losing it. And that change would fall hardest on women in healthcare.
This is political and it is sexist.

Thank you to Senator Ron Wyden for letting us know the MAGA Senate Republicans are trying to slide a nationwide abortion ban into the shutdown negotiations.
Hell no! They want to control every part of women’s lives and we aren’t having it.
